Ken ,
I just wanted to know if you would suggest having a professional install it, or attempting to do it myself, is it easy?
Thanks for all your help!

 

OH YEA,
have you had any problems, with the chip not taking in some trucks? Does it matter if you get a new intake or anything will that throw the program off?

 

I did it myself, had to clean the trk. cumputer 3x's, other then that it wasn't bad. had to remove the battery like directions say, but they didn't suggest to drill a hole in plastic battery case so you can get 5/16 socket with an extention on one of the bolts behind the battery on the trks. cumputer.
I have a 7700 that I think takes a different part number, but installation should be the same.

 

No need to get a professional. If you can turn a screw-driver you can install a chip module --- very simple.

The intake will not impact the chip at all.

There are occasional problem vehicles, its rare and its usually something like a dealer reflash, missing jumper on the port, etc.

 

awww man.. I talked to a mechanic at the dealership today and he told me that putting the chip in my truck will blow my tranny... whats the deal with that? WILL THE CHIP VOID MY WARRANTY?

 

Scare tactics. We've sold thousands without a single tranny failure and run them in our own vehicles.

What can blow a tranny is improper tuning (ie, what too firm a shift). We don't select hard shift tunes hence no problems exist. It takes a very hard shift on a high RPM application to cause problems.

No, the installation will not void the warranty. Its the same as any aftermarket part: installation will not void the warranty but naturally Ford is not going to cover something caused by an aftermarket part.

 

Geez Ken ,
You are the man, you are solely responsible for my buying that chip , you should give yourself a big up man.. for real thanks for all your help... I'm going to do alot more buisness with the site thanks to you man.
